87/10

Arsenal are at home to Blackburn – a team looking likely to be facing another season in the Championship.           

          Although a cup run might not be in Blackburn’s favour – they’re eyeing the play-off positions, albeit optimistically – they’ll want to show they’ve still got the capability to play against top opposition.  Regardless of their intent, we think Arsenal will be able to progress to the next round and you can expect a home win.

          In the three games that Luton have had since their upsetting of Norwich they’ve lost twice and have only managed to score once.  They seem unlikely winners in their match against Millwall but we think they’re a good option to score, at the very least, regardless of the current poor spell.  Millwall, since their FA Cup bettering of Aston Villa have failed to win a game in the Championship.  Luton have given top opposition firm tests in the FA Cup and definitely have a good chance to progress. This game will have a real sense of occasion, and we hope it’ll be graced by goals.

          Chelsea are unlikely to falter at home to Brentford and the FA Cup remains the strongest option for them if they’re to gain any silverware this season.  The lack of direction and urgency displayed by Chelsea in the last fixture should be a long and distant memory to the visitors by the end of the first half.  Chelsea were able to put four past Wigan and with the FA Cup having been Chelsea’s get out of jail free card so often in recent seasons we think a similar scoreline to last weekend’s is likely.

          Man City’s season promised so much and has delivered so very little thus far.  The FA Cup is their only chance to win a trophy now and we think that the team, left licking its wounds after losing to struggling Southampton, will treat this game with the immediacy they’ve lacked of late.  We’re enhancing our potential returns this week by backing Man City to be winning both halves against Leeds, who have had two disappointing outings since claiming their place in the fifth round by knocking Tottenham out of the competition.

          Everton are our pick for the game against Oldham.  Oldham may have knocked Liverpool out of the competition – but that’s unlikely to be of any advantage to them here; Everton will be more than keen to make an example of Oldham to invite comparisons.  In 24 of 30 games played by Everton this season, in all competitions, both teams have scored – that’s four games in five where both teams find the net!  We’re going to hope for the home side to give their fans something to cheer – a moment likely to serve on as consolation for the home fans at the final whistle.
